The Vine Arts Center is dedicated in memory of Howard Gelb

The Vine Arts Center is dedicated in memory of Howard Gelb without whose generosity and support the Vine Arts Center would not exist. He transformed the Flour City Ornamental Iron Works Building into the Ivy Building for the Arts and made this space available for the Vine Arts Center. Mrs Gelb and her daughter, Joyce Leibman joined us at the dedication of The Vine Arts Center.
